Junior Game Design

Kids learn to make rules, customize control and style for their own game.

Group projects or activities for them to work as a team in create games in the class.

Children LOVE games, especially computer games. They talk about them, they play them, and they brag about their accomplishments. Children also love to challenge each other in these games, so much so that an entire industry has developed around playing games offline and online.

Every child is born intelligent
